@MitoResearch Thank you so much, so interesting and informative. Such amazing work! Thank you for all you do.

[Kate Elliott @kates2091]

Amazing to see the work that @weareMSUK are doing. The communities look like such great support and the research going into this area is so impressive ❤️

Individually IMDs may be rare, but together they are common!

Building communities helps connect people with similar experiences, sharing in peer support and understanding.

From online FB groups & monthly online coffee lounge chats to our annual in-person community conference.

IMDs are rare conditions that affect the body's metabolic reactions. There are over 500 IMDs with a wide range of symptoms and prognosis.

Some disorders can be life changing or life-limiting, but others can be managed by diet or medication.

Calling all #catlovers in the York area. Do you have space in your heart and home for Bronn and Sansa? We are desperately looking for a perfect home for this timid pair ❤️🐈‍⬛ https://t.co/TnLNI3uHXi #cat #rescuecat #YORKSHIRE #york #AdoptDontShop

A friend shared this article on her social media on the 1st May and she died on Sunday, I feel like we’ve come far enough now that people shouldn’t be dying from EDs. My heart hurts. https://t.co/EIsNYgUg8j

@Naomi_Barrow I’m so sorry x

Today has involved painting some keyrings for an online craft market. Trying to be brave and see if people might like to buy them. Having a self critic is a pain sometimes, but here’s to trying to challenge it ❤️ #compassion #selfcompassion #creativecompassion #handmade #creative

[Kate Elliott @kates2091]

And last but not least, here’s some crochet I’ve been up to this year ❤️ #creativity #crochet #handmade #craft #artandcraft #wellbeing

[Kate Elliott @kates2091]

I’m also thinking of turning some of my paintings into prints or selling originals. So let me know if you’re interested in any ❤️ #creative #art #artist #smallbusiness #shophandmade #yorkmakers #artistsontwitter #abstractart #artjournalling

Hey Twitter, it’s been a while. The world is wild. But here’s some art I’ve been doing recently. It’s definitely good for the old brain. #creativecompassion #compassion #art #creativity #mentalhealth #wellbeing #mixedmedia

Does anyone have any experience of collaboration between CMHT and private mental health care? Or experience that they’ve not been able to work in tandem? Any info appreciated ❤️

[Kate Elliott @kates2091]

@Naomi_Barrow This kid!

[Kate Elliott @kates2091]

I’ve been mindfully getting back into painting lately. Trying to channel some #compassion and soothing into a somewhat threat based period of time I’m finding myself in. Tapping and remembering breathing is important is also helping #mentalhealth #selfcompassion #artjournalling

[Kate Elliott @kates2091]

@Naomi_Barrow 100% it’s just so isolating and awful 😞
